where
Ordinary length columns buckle when some of the fibers are inelastic, having a
modulus of elasticity less than its initial value. This explains what happens in the s-e
curve.
· Basic Tangent Modulus (Engesser) - The column remains straight up to the
instant of failure and the modulus of elasticity at failure is the tangent to the
σ-ε curve.
- explains why σ-ε curve becomes non linear beyond proportional limit.
- stresses that remains in a member after it has been formed into a finished product, it
also results from plastic deformation.
- several causes of residual stresses
· Uneven cooling which occurs after hot rolling of structural shapes
· Cold bending or cambering during fabrication
· Punching of holes and cutting operations during fabrication
· Welding

2.7 Development of Column Strength Curves
In the case of hot rolled sections where the process is normally standards in steel mills,
a linear variation may be assumed. Residual stresses arises when a material is cooled
from a high temperature. Since there is a lot of difference in the rate of cooling thruout
a body, where the rate of cooling inside the body is slower than the surface, a localized
variation in thermal contraction occurs. As a result the area where a cooling is the
fastest (free ends and surfaces) the material experiences compressive residual stress
while the area where cooling is the slowest (interiors and joints) the material
experiences tensile residual stresses.
Note : The MTS3000 – Restan is an advanced and accurate system to measure residual
stress by the hole drilling method. The hole-drilling strain-gage method has been
standardized by the ASTM E 837 “Standard Test Method for Determining Residual
Stresses by the Hole-Drilling Strain-Gage Method”
